Alenza Ultra

I bought a new set of Bridgestone Alenza Ultra, this was my third set that I have bought on different cars that I own and this third set by far is the worst set that I have bought. I only have driven the car for around 30,000 miles and the tires have worn out evenly. I had the car aligned and made sure on my part the tires would last but they did not.

Decent tire but they don't last ling

These tires are decent, drove them over the Sierras during the winter and they did fine. They just don't last very long, had to replace before 17k miles. It's a bummer because I really wanted to like them but won't be getting them again. No milage warranty either.

Wear Out Real Fast

These tires worked well, no complaints about performance for an all season tire. However the tire wear was abysmal. Tires were rated for 80K, they were down to the wear bars at less than 30K miles and had to be replaced. They were on the truck for only 2.5 years. I'd never buy these again.

Terrible

Purchased these tires because of all the positive accolades but this is what I found out after two weeks: The ride comfort and noise were just okay compared to the OEM tires on my Volvo. The mpg was reduced by 3.2 mpg over the OEM tires. However, the worse thing is that these tires tramline terrible on grooved concrete which is unavoidable in my area. I have driven over 60 years now and never saw/felt something this bad = even my mud/snow tires on my truck do not do this. I returned the vehicle to the local Firestone dealer and the manager drove the vehicle to see. His comment was "terrible tires". Anyway, I hate returning anything but these tires are so scary to drive on that I had to. Thank goodness that the dealer totally agreed and returned all my money. Firestone needs to do a lot better and warn people about this or there will be accidents due to these tires.

Purchased these tires a week before driving from Dayton OH to Chicago IL for the weekend. These tires are great. They're really smooth and quiet. The traction on dry and wet roads are incredible. I will say that they are a little high on the price but I did get a lifetime warrenty on the rotation and balancing with 4 free oil changes. But I do recommend this tire, just search around for the lowest prices. Plus check for rebates as I did and I'm receiving a $120 gift card back.

Excellent choice so far

I replaced the OEM Continental tires with the Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultra because this was Tire Rack's highest rated Bridgestone in my size, although it was not their top tire, and I already had Firestone's Lifetime Alignment on this vehicle. They matched Costco's installed price, also. One of the Continental tires had a belt break, and winter was just around the corner and tread was thin, so I replaced all four tires just before a 600-mile road trip from SC to VA. I've had Bridgestones before, and was never disappointed when I bought a highly rated tire. The first thing I noticed was the effortless steering, like the front tires were on ice. I don't know if that's good or bad. On the Interstate, the tires soaked up minor bumps like they weren't there --- the bumps didn't make it into the car, which the passengers appreciated. Is this because of fresh rubber or a tire characteristic --- time will tell? Concrete pavement separators, bridge entries and exits, and pavement repair bumps disappeared as-if I had new shocks. And road noise from tires vanished. We have lots of stretches of some very noisy pavement, but you wouldn't know it with these tires. Again, is it the tire or simply fresh rubber? As the driver, I really appreciated this. I have TPM and the pressure never wavered. I drive on curvy roads, faster than I care to admit, but these tires didn't squeal or slip. We have not had winter yet, so I can't report on that, but if the tire performance so far is any indication, I've got a real winner of a tire.

Great tires

When I needed tires for my Traverse I shopped around for price, available and good shop. I found them through Tiresplus and with their help they found them at a Firestone service center that is partnered with them. They went through the tires and all the extras I want with the tires. They mounted the tires on my rims and they was fast on doing so. I have done business with TiresPlus for years and they have never disappointed me ever.

Bridgestone Baby!

Having Duelers on my previous vehicles SOLD me! I purchased my truck last year, it had new tires so off I went...ugh! I quickly learned I could not go through another winter with them. I love my dealership and have all work on my truck done there. I talked long with them about my tires and new wheel purchase. I also told them I will only consider Bridgestone. I learned my tire of choice is being phased out and not readily available. I chose the Alenza AS Ultra, and although I have had them for only a few days, I am very pleased with my decision. No noise and a very smooth ride! However, I did want to take advantage of the financing offer, so I opened a CFNA account only to learn it is not honored everywhere. My advice for you is to confirm this with your dealer or tire store first!

The tires that came with my new RX are bald now

And I have driven only 40k. Lexus dealership told me to change two tires at 35k. I have just pushed it a bit more. But I am disappointed that these tires last only 40k. And I have mostly highway driving. Everything is great with tires except the durability. Which I think is a major issue. Bridgestone should fix this.

Amazing

My truck rode like a truck prior to switching to these tires. My truck now rides like a Cadillac you don't feel the potholes or the ruffness of the road. I'm switching my SUV to these tires also. Little expensive at $250ish apiece, but you get what you pay for I guess
